It's not quite the same is it, also, Cinderella is a story to frighten children.

I tend to think so too, "profoundly lacking in judgement" would be a good summation - all Rob's troubles stem from her, including not having John at his side.

The thing is, no one in the books really seems to think so.

Which basically means everyone's a bit thick, or they have "plot blindess" to her failings because if Ned et al. just told her to shut up from book one everyone would have been better off.
